Alexander’s Girlfriend? You got to be kidding me, the one real man who was not a celebrity that I was falling for, had a girlfriend and how ironic it could be?
I was shocked would be an understatement because I’m beyond shocked. My heart ached from her words, her words turned into a heated sword and pierced right into my heart repeatedly without mercy.
“Oh,” was my blunt response to her confession. Guess what? that damn bimbo smirked at me.
I guess, Xander was not lucky enough to have me, I heaved a large sigh and masked my emotions.
“Tyra! I told you I need time to think about this and we are not couples yet,” Xander chimed in with a frown in his handsome face.
“Oh hush! We will be so soon,” she told him with a wink, which annoyed the hell out of me.
“Whatever!” he muttered lowly under his breath. So he didn’t accept her proposal, which means I still have a chance. I cheered myself.
But you were not a werewolf, like them, remember? You can’t have a family with him, my inner self reminded me.
“Brother! Never expected to see you here,” a deep masculine voice told me from my behind, I Instantly turned around to witness a guy my age grinning and holding two cups.
“Drake!” Xander lifted that bimbo from his lap and rushed to the stranger behind me and did a brotherly hug and ruffled the stranger’s hair with a chuckle.
Drake and Xander have similar features but drake was slightly shorter than Xander about 6’3, I guess and he has strong grey eyes unlike Xander’s ocean blue eyes other than that they have many similar features.
After their little gesture, Xander took a seat opposite to me near Tyra and Drake took a seat beside me.
“Whose is this cute girl,” Drake asked me with a gentle smile.
“Hello, I’m Catherine but please call me Cathie,” I shook his hand with a polite smile. Unlike Xander, Drake looks more boyish and sweet, Xander is more like rough and hard but still handsome as ever.
“Nice to meet you, Cathie, I’m Drake, Alex’s last brother,” Drake told me with a sweet smile, I guess everyone other than me calls him Alex.
“Last brother?” I raised my eyebrows at Xander in question for which he just shrugged and answered me “Yeah, I have two brothers, I’m the eldest, Aiden is the second one and Drake here is the last”
“Oh! Where is Aiden?” I enquired about his second brother who I haven’t met yet
“He is busy in taking care of business along with me and he lives far from us, so you’ll meet him eventually,” he told me with tensed shoulders. Strange!
“And by the way, Drake here goes to the same university as you,” he told me with a bored expression.
“Really!” both drake and I asked enthusiastically at the same time, we both looked at each other with a goofy smile, guess I made another friend here.
“What is your major?” Drake asked me.
“English,” I told him.
“Me too!” I think we both will be good friends but I can’t help the crush I’m having on his brother.
We both talked for a while and Tyra was busy flirting with Xander, who was busy frowning at me. I should probably restrain these newfound feelings for Xander which was not good for my heart. Drake is of the same age as me, which was twenty. After Xander and I had our brunch, we both said our goodbyes to them and made our way to his car.
“Seems like you enjoyed my brother’s company?” he asked me with a clenched jaw.
“Seems like you enjoyed her flirting?” I retorted.
“She is not flirting, she is just being… nice” he stopped walking and stood in front of my way.
“Sure!” I replied with an eye roll, even a kid can figure it out that she flirted with him.
The drive to my granny’s home was silent, Xander seems to be in deep thought,
“Is she is a werewolf?” I broke the silence by asking him still looking outside the window.
“Who?” he asked me with confusion.
“Tyra!” I spun my head to his direction and he gave me a ‘what’s going on’ look. Sometimes, boys can be so blunt about the situation.
“Yeah, she is. She is the daughter of the Alpha of our neighbouring pack” he told me.
“Oh” I didn’t give him further reply because I was flabbergasted with this whole situation. They’ll make a perfect pair, my inner voice commented, which made me sulk inside me.
“Are you okay?” he scrutinized his gaze on me like he was solving a puzzle.
“Just because you are marrying that bimbo doesn’t mean that I’m not okay” I snapped, he gave me an amused look and his lips turned upward. I narrowed my eyes on him.
“Are you jealous, Sweetcheeks?” he asked me with a smirk, that cheeky bastard!
“Why should I be? I feel sorry for you because you are going to spend the rest of your life with her” as soon as the car came to a halt in front of my granny’s home, I limped out of the car carrying my medicines.
He too came out and rounded the car to reach my side but I was fast, so he yelled from his position “I’m not marrying anyone!” I came to an abrupt halt still not turning my head to his direction.
“My heart still beats for the same person who is no more,” he whispered with so much sadness if I didn’t restrain my ears I wouldn’t be able to hear his latter confession. Stupid me! I scolded myself for making him sad.
